When the Regent Princess kneeled, all the children in Beijing broke their knees.
Chapter 429: The Bamboo Pole Man
He was originally going to go to the Jiang family military camp, but after exchanging information with Yun Chu, he rode away and went directly to the northern battlefield. He had been away for some time and needed to go back to take charge.
Four days later, Jiang Yunchu arrived in Xifeng City.
West Wind City is a city belonging to the eldest prince Sig. It was a special reward given to him by the King of Western Frontier when he came of age. All the taxes and land belong to Sig.
In the inner city of Xijiang, there were only soldiers guarding the city, staring at everyone coming and going.
Jiang Yunchu, dressed as a man, entered Xifeng City and found a tavern. He handed the owner a wooden sign, a very ordinary sign with a green bamboo carved on it.
"What would you like to drink?" The man didn't answer, but just glanced at her without any change in his expression.
"Give me half a pound of girl's red wine." Jiang Yunchu said.
The man smiled and looked at her. "Look at you, young master. You don't look like someone who can drink. Half a catty of wine can make a cow drunk to death."
"Daughter's red wine, tears on the handkerchief, say goodbye, talk about reunion, half a catty, no more, no less, just right."
Jiang Yunchu seemed to be just expressing his emotion about the Nv'erhong wine and hummed a few lines softly. The man then poured half a pound of Nv'erhong wine and brought it to where Jiang Yunchu was sitting.
There were no decent seats in the tavern, just stools, some facing the window, some facing the fireplace, and some facing the scroll.
You can also move around at will. If you like quietness, it’s okay to sit in a corner by yourself.
Jiang Yunchu chose a corner. When the shopkeeper delivered the wine, he said softly, "One quarter after midnight, in the yard behind the tavern."
Without waiting for her to reply, the shopkeeper left.
Jiang Yunchu took a sip and it was so spicy that she almost cried.
Holding the wine gourd, she staggered away, found an inn, threw a tael of silver to the waiter, and was led directly to a room, which was a floor-level room.
"Sir, this is it."
Jiang Yunchu walked into the room. Although it was small and a little dim, it was enough for her to rest. This was Xige's territory, so she had to be careful.
"I'll call you if I need anything. Don't come into my room without me." She specifically instructed.
"Okay." The waiter called out, and then put a wooden sign on her door, indicating that someone had moved in.
Jiang Yunchu opened the window, looked out to see the situation outside, searched for an escape route, then walked down and turned around a few times before returning to the house.
I don’t know when this broken internal energy will recover. It has been more than ten days. Although my body is not weak anymore, my meridians are completely empty. There is nothing in it.
I had originally expected that once I reached Xifeng Mirror and recovered my inner strength, I would have the confidence.
But unfortunately, this broken internal force did not go according to the plan.
Holding Sig's seal in her hand, she went to sleep with her clothes on.
It was not until three o'clock in the morning that he quietly opened the window without disturbing anyone, climbed out of the window from the second floor, and jumped down. His internal strength was gone, but his previous kung fu foundation was still there.
"Greetings, my lord." When they arrived at the place, the owner of the tavern directly opened the door of the yard and let Jiang Yunchu walk into the yard. He clasped his hands together and performed a Da Ning salute.
"What's the current situation in Xifeng City? I want to go to Xifeng Mirror, what do I need?" Jiang Yunchu didn't waste any words. The contact information of this person was given by Ning Chengyan.
She trusted Ning Chengyan.
"Since the eldest prince left, West Wind City has begun a full-scale martial law. Recently, the Third Prince's people have not been honest. Many families in West Wind City are in danger and are thinking about a way out."
"But no news came out of the Grand Prince's Mansion. Even the Grand Prince himself went to the West Wing City on the border."
The boss explained the situation one by one, saying that now was not the best time to explore West Wind City.
"I'm going to Zephyr Mirror, if you need anything."
This is what she is most concerned about at the moment. Calculating the time, General Jiang is not far from falling into a coma again due to the poison. She needs to speed up her pace. All her efforts are to save the life of this old general.
"I need the seal of the Great Prince, and a special letter."
"There are only a few people who can enter the West Wind Mirror now. Even the eldest prince has not stamped his seal in the past few years."
"It's even more difficult to get to the West Wind Mirror."
The owner of the tavern shook his head helplessly. It was said that the eldest prince's seal had not been used again within five years. Xifeng Jing and his people had been preparing for a long time, but had no way to do it.
Jiang Yunchu frowned, "I have the seal, but I don't have the special letter."
After hearing her words, the tavern owner's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he looked at her with a scrutinizing look.
"who are you?"
It is said that the eldest prince's seal is kept with him. In order to obtain the eldest prince's seal, their people lost more than a dozen good men in succession within a period of five years. They tried all kinds of tricks, but they had never even seen the seal, let alone getting it.
The person in front of me said that she has a seal?
How can it not arouse suspicion?
Jiang Yunchu smiled and looked at the vigilant man, "I am from Bamboo Pole."
Bamboo pole, General, Ning Chengyan!
"The Bamboo Pole Man!" the man repeated. This code name was only known by the Northern Army.
That’s right, Bamboo Pole, only the royal army knew about it, and one other person knew about it, and that was Emperor Ning.
Others didn't know that over the years, even though the letters were lost, no one had ever doubted that Ning Chengyan was alive.
When Jiang Yunchu said the word "bamboo pole", the owner of the tavern believed it completely.
"Come with me." He looked at Jiang Yunchu deeply, then said softly, then opened the door of the woodshed, and after removing a few bundles of firewood and a water tank from the depths of the woodshed, a passage appeared.
"follow me."
The man looked at her, and she just nodded without saying anything.
The tavern owner walked in front, and Jiang Yunchu followed closely behind. The two walked very fast. It was unknown how long they had been walking when the tavern owner knocked on the wooden door. The sound was very rhythmic, with long and short beats.
"Old Eight, why are you here?"
The man frowned, and when he saw the person walking out from behind Lao Ba, his frown deepened.
"The bamboo pole man."
Lao Ba did not hesitate and directly revealed Jiang Yunchu's identity.
The man looked at Jiang Yunchu for a long while and asked, "How is the bamboo pole?"
"Back in the military camp, he was worried about the situation in the west and sneaked into West Wing City, but he has already left." Jiang Yunchu replied indifferently.
The man calculated the time and it matched.
Jiang Yunchu understood their caution, otherwise how could these people survive until now and provide so much information to Daning?
